Does this---acetone/transm fluid---work better than PBB/Liq Wrench, etc? Anybody else try this?
Nut splitter didn't break (even though my kid put the impact on it at one point---a move he "guaranteed" would break it). It was tough to use though, under the car, reaching up, frame rust sprinkling down in your hair and eyes as you work. Problem is, it takes a LOT of torque on the wrench (w/ breaker bar) to drive that wedge through the nut. With no way to hold the splitter down flush, you tend to torque it right off the nut. Maybe I just got a less than great one, I don't know.
